Arbonne is a skin care company that sells Swiss formulated products for inner and outer beauty. They have been in business in the United States since 1980, although they started in Switzerland in 1975. They have been successful with their botanical based products that cover a wide array of health and beauty issues, from weight loss to anti-aging and skin care.

Arbonne offers a networking or multi-level marketing plan to move their products through thousands of independent representatives and offers bonuses and incentives. Most of the representatives were customers before becoming consultants, which is what Arbonne suggests. That is a good philosophy since you have to believe in what you are selling to be a good spokesperson.

It is very inexpensive to get started as a consultant, with the initial cost of $109 being for the consultant starter kit, and you also receive a 35% discount and are eligible for the bonus programs. For $29, you can become a preferred customer that gets a starter kit and 20% discount, or you can just be a retail customer and buy the products you like.

Arbonne has a team of researchers at their facilities in Switzerland that work on developing new formulas using botanical ingredients, and they have expanded the product lines and even offer a teen and baby care product line.

Some of the other skin care product companies have gotten aggressive in pricing, such as Oil of Olay, who has moved into the higher end skin care product line. When comparing to Arbonne products, many of the users agree that Arbonne gives better results for the money. The NutriMinC anti-aging products get rave reviews on the Internet from users, and many claim it knocks ten years off after using it for a month or so.
